Israel is Judeonazi.  It's fascist and has killed 1500 Lebanese.

Judeonazi makes as much sense as judeochristian.

A cop out term to avoid the awkward reality.

I wouldn't agree.
Israeli jews are fascist. Some if this has Jewish angles
Amalek or killing the women and children is Jewish. It was used in the genocide and is used in Lebanon.

Judeonazi gets close to the reality.

 Having weathered first the fallout from the pandemic and then the energy disruption caused by Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, households and businesses are facing the third major supply shock in half a decade.

Jet fuel prices remain at double the level before the war, reflecting its relative scarcity.

 Michael O'Leary, chief executive of Ryanair, said earlier this month that if the war continues, then there was a risk of "disruptions in Europe in May and June", adding that "maybe 10pc, 20pc, 25pc of our supplies might be at risk".If

ACI Europe, which represents EU airports, said jet fuel reserves were running low, while "the impact of military activity on demand" was further straining supplies.

Liverpool want Arne Slot to remain manager next season
Owners believe Dutchman deserves to stay in charge; plus Van Dijk says 'unacceptable' form shows that it's the end of an era at Anfield

Liverpool owners Fenway Sports Group believes that Arne Slot will lead the club next season despite another defeat on Wednesday night and the manager's admission that the team are in survival mode.

The 2-0 loss to Paris St-Germain means Liverpool are on the precipice of Champions League elimination on Tuesday, with even match-going fans losing patience with Slot. Yet the expectation that Slot will be dismissed at the end of the season – or even earlier – is at odds with the mood from FSG in Boston and the British-based executives Michael Edwards and Richard Hughes.

The consensus is that Slot deserves to start next season, and that the transition from Jürgen Klopp in the summer of 2024 was not as simple as last season's Premier League title indicated.

Slot said that Liverpool were in "survival mode" for "large parts" of the defeat by PSG in the first leg of their quarter-final tie. Pressure has increased on Slot with the availability of both Xabi Alonso and Steven Gerrard, former Liverpool playing greats who have both won league titles as managers.

As things stand, FSG believes there is mitigation for performances: the death of Diogo Jota principle among them, given its effect on his team-mates at the start of the season. There has also been the fall-off in performance of the stars of the era, primarily last season's top goalscorer Mohamed Salah. Captain Virgil van Dijk acknowledged on Wednesday night it was "the end of an era" for many of the team, with Andy Robertson departing this summer when his contract expires.

While Slot is acknowledged to have made errors, the feeling is that he deserves four transfer windows before a judgment is made. The club estimate their net spend at around £150m under their manager, in spite of last summer's gross spending of more than £450m. Klopp had five windows before his first trophy, the 2019 Champions League.

Slot has a contract until the end of next season, and the club are of a mind to persevere into the last season of that deal before making any decision on a renewal or otherwise. Both Hughes and Edwards – sporting director and FSG's football chief executive respectively – have fixed-term deals that end at the same time. Both planned to stay for the contracted three years and no longer.

Slot is "fully involved" with recruitment plans for the summer, although events may dictate how that evolves. The club already have an agreement to sign Rennes defender Jérémy Jacquet for £55m with more changes planned.

Whether Alonso is interested in the Liverpool job is not clear, but the Basque coach, sacked in January by Real Madrid, asked not to be considered in the summer of 2024 when Klopp's replacement was being chosen. He elected to stay at Bayer Leverkusen then and moved after the following season when the Real Madrid job became available.

That unwillingness to follow Klopp, one of the club's greatest managers, contrasted with Slot's enthusiasm for the challenge, continues to figure in the thinking at the club.

This made me laugh

Strange times. Only Trump could make MTG sound sane.

MTG is in tune with the base who don't want war.

Trump has relied heavily on the super-rich, who accounted for about 34 per cent of the total haul, according to an FT analysis. Four donors — banking heir Timothy Mellon, casino developer Miriam Adelson, shipping magnate Richard Uihlein and Elon Musk — gave about $432mn. About 6 per cent of pro-Harris groups' funding came from billionaires.

Trumps latest rantings alongside roading high ranking military officials, surely he isn't getting ready to use a nuke??

Trump is a narcissist. He belongs in a nursing home.

At one level, so what. There are people like you believing any auld shite on Twitter and any government is entitled to counter Russian bots.

But it would be a lot easier to use their influence to just clean up Twitter

What sort of shite do I believe in from twitter? Am fascinated to hear

Still hard to escape that we blew a very winnable draw. The Danes had already began to self-destruct in their two final group games and Czechs were already in disarray with players downing tools with dispute with their association, new elderly manager brought in for the playoffs to try and calm things, down 2-0 to us early in the game. The pity is the gap between Hungary game and March, as we did start to look a decent team in those final two group games. But didn't deserve it in the end. Hard to see us ever qualifying again. Too many European countries are just more technically gifted and the once minnows like the Bosnias have passed us out.

International Soccer is uasal agus iseal. Mid ranking teams go in phases. We are in an upward phase. We^ll qualify for the Euros and if we get some new talent and make enough progress we could be contenders for WC qualifying next time around.

Soccer isn't our game, we don't play it with any skill or imagination. None of our players play for any of the top clubs in the country they ply their trade in. As wearos said, even nations as small and smaller than ourselves are technically superior. We lost control in the second half v Czechia because we couldn't string a few passes together and we were dispossessed too easily. Coaching/management isn't the issue  - I doubt Guardiola / Ancelotti / whoever would make any difference to us as we're so limited, not that there's a danger any top coach would touch us with the FAI €40m on the hook.

Looking forward, we should be ok for keepers for the next 10 years or so, assuming Kelleher / Bazuno stay healthy. Ditto forwards, with Ferguson and Parrott. None of O'Shea / O'Brien / Collins would even be regarded as international class defenders and midfield is a waste land. The new players coming in are from championship teams. The outlook is bleak.

It's like club hurling or football i mo thuairim... 2 or 3 good players and then the question is how good your weak players are. 

Players from smaller countries are technically better but they depend on 2 or 3 good players.

Scotland and Switzerland are doing the iterations at a higher level.

Scotland and Switzerland have champions league teams playing in front of big crowds. There are no short cuts.

Scotland were shite for 3 decades.
